The Low Embodied-carbon Building Rating System (LEBR), established by the Architecture and Building Research Institute, Ministry of the Interior (ABRI), is one of the dual-track labeling mechanisms developed to advance Taiwan’s “2050 Net Zero Building” goal.
At its core, LEBR focuses on evaluating and reducing Embodied Carbon (EC). This includes four key stages: material production, transportation of building materials, construction, renovation, and demolition/disposal. Globally, EC accounts for approximately 9% of total greenhouse gas emissions from the building sector.
As a quantitative assessment tool, LEBR aims to facilitate rapid evaluations and carbon-reduction strategies during the design phase, thereby maximizing the overall efficiency and effectiveness of carbon mitigation efforts in the built environment.
Through the Low Embodied-carbon Building Rating System, companies can effectively quantify their carbon-reduction goals and fulfill their corporate ESG responsibilities. We carefully review carbon information, provide appropriate carbon-reducing strategies throughout the building lifecycle, and have successfully helped many projects obtain low-carbon building certification at high certification levels.
